The current Dilly Beans Challenge theme is Spring. I used the Amalia & Laylah Dlly Beans image because it totally makes me smile. This image is going to be the one that I learn to color hair on. This is my first attempt, but I am going to practice, practice, practice until I get it! Aren't these girls sweet? I added some Martha Stewart punches (leaf and hydrengea) and sponged the image inside of a Spellbinders circel die. This cute little card is going to a sweet friend for her birthday.

Aww, branching out from the Octopodes, huh - what a switch from them to these sweet friends giving hugs - that is just like you too - I get your vitual ones all the time - they are the best!
I love the wee little blooms and your bow down the side, such a soft look to this adorable card. LYMI and Hugs again!

Nancy, this is so precious. I LOVE your coloring. I'm still working on copic coloring. I haven't done much with hair yet and I'm stuck on an image I want to color, but after 6 tries it still looks like mud! Audzi is coming over Saturday, so maybe she can help me salvage my not so brilliant idea! I love your array of leaves and flowers and, of course, the image is so cute. Luvin' that ribbon treatment too sis! Come join us on Saturday why don't ya?

The first thing that I noticed about this was the wonderful way that the hair is colored. This is such a cute image, you've done it great justice in your colors, layout and the sweet punched elements and bow. Hugz...

This is so sweet and cute. I love the softness of the ribbon that contributes to the feminine look and feel to the card. That image is just darling and reminds me of sharing a secret with a best friend. The little flowers just make it adorable.

So cute! And, hey, did you pick up some of my pink and yellow hydrangea punched flowers off my floor?? LOL I have a card, never before shown on the web, with those same punched flowers in the same colors! Great minds....
